This is why he bombed Iran. So no would be watching him remove files about his crimes and corruption with Jeffrey Epstein. The DOJ is covering up the crimes of our rapist president.

This is honestly one of the most anti-Jewish things I’ve ever seen from the United States government.

"Demand is so great that programs to mentor attorneys to file habeas cases are emerging... “I’m on all these listservs where people are saying, who can help me in Arizona, who can help me in Mississippi, and people are stepping up and helping each other...” www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

A win! Glad they didn’t cave. Senate Democrats blocked a spending bill to reopen the Department of Homeland Security for a third time, insisting they would not approve the measure without new limits on immigration enforcement.

The Constitution is clear: Congress decides on war. When a president uses military force without authorization and Congress stays silent, they are abandoning their role as a co equal branch of government. War is the most serious power our government has. Shame on the U.S. Senate today.

“Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed...This is not a way of life...it is humanity hanging from a cross of iron.” -Dwight Eisenhower 1953

Kristi Noem has done a stunning amount of damage and it’s good she’s gone. But this doesn’t change the fact that we need a complete overhaul of DHS, impartial investigations into the killings of two American citizens, and information on children that were taken from Minnesota.

BREAKING: The Justice Department just posted online three FBI interviews that had been missing from the massive trove of Epstein files initially released. They're related to unsubstantiated sexual assault allegations against Donald Trump. DOC 1: www.justice.gov/epstein/file...

ICE has arrested and detained a Nashville journalist who reported stories critical of ICE. She’s married to a U.S. citizen and has been seeking asylum here after fleeing death threats in Colombia because of her journalism there. They’ve already sent her to Louisiana.

The reason we have “stupid rules of engagement” is to make sure we don’t bomb elementary schools.

It implies that we are visitors in someone else’s country.

Counterpoint: absolutely not

Really worth watching this.

If I hear one more Evangelical claim that God anointed Donald Trump, I swear I’m gonna rapture myself. It’s sinful. It’s blasphemous. It’s lousy evangelism. It’s terrible theology. It’s also just plain asinine... johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/umm-no-god...

🤨Fox News showed "American" interceptor drones in action, but there's a catch... the video shows Ukrainian STING drones shooting down Russian drones.

Trump can appoint Mullins as "acting" secretary of DHS, therefore getting around Democratic obstruction. That said, the Democrats should stand united against confirming ANYONE to lead DHS, as part of a general shutdown of Senate business, as my senator suggests here.

Thank you, Senator. That's the mindset and plan of action we need.

ending her career lying about an orwell quote while the entire room is getting news notifications about how she’s been fired and clearly doesn’t know it, perfect

For someone who became famous on TV for firing people in person, Donald is such a coward about firing people in real life. He fired Kristi Noem in a tweet *while* she was giving a televised address.

Historian here history first time as tragedy the second time as farce.

That's Noem, Lewandowski, and Bovino out. Wannabe fascists, perhaps, but you are not living in a fascist country. Public pressure, embarassment, legislative opposition - all of them helped to turf these folks. That's what I mean by "the levers of democracy still work and you should use them."

Hiding from the J6 terrorists who are now his employees honestly cant make this shit up

Mullin is also the guy who tried to take away Al Green’s sign at the SOTU, so we know he is also a racist and doesn’t believe in the first amendment. www.koco.com/article/mark...

He has 0 qualifications for this job. Markwayne Mullin is even dumber than Kristi Noem. Pretty sure he’d be a bigger asshole in that job too. It’s mind boggling that no matter how incompetent and evil these cabinet members are, Trump is always able to find someone worse.

I truly do think all of the "Noem out, Mullin in" posts and stories are failing American democracy right now! Trump is announcing his nominee. That's it. If the Senate majority wants to confirm him, they're a part of this—even after knowing what they know now. And that matters come November.

Markwayne Mullin is a knuckleheaded plumber and the only Senator not to have a bachelors degree. Republicans in the Senate confirming the Mullin appointment to run Homeland Security will show their usual disregard for the well-being of the citizens of this country while blindly pleasing Trump.

If you were hoping for a DHS secretary even *one iota* better than Noem, stop hoping. Mullin will be easily confirmed, and he's nothing more than a vacuous thug *gleeful* to be the mailed fist of the president against citizens and non-citizens alike.

If you vote to fund Trump’s war, then you support Trump’s war, and you own everything that happens as a result of the war you funded. You can try to explain/justify it however you want, but it will not work.

Good news that the execrable Kristi Noem has been fired, but Trump should really be firing Stephen Miller, the primary engineer of the vile ethnic reengineering agenda and murderously violent civic tensions that are sucking all of them into a bottomless political sinkhole, Trump included.

Kristi Noem has used $200M+ in taxpayer funds to pay firms with close ties to her top aides to make anti-immigrant PSAs. Her luxury jets will cost taxpayers nearly $300M. Trump's lackeys rail against "government waste," but are happy to pilfer taxpayer funds for themselves.

In a sane world, the firing of Kristi Noem would be a reason to celebrate. But we don't live in a sane world and we have every reason to assume that Trump's lawless ICE and border operation will continue apace...now with a male face at the helm.

Jeffries calls Kristi Noem "a living breathing article of impeachment"

The WH is now turning to - checks notes - Ukraine to help take down Iranian drones targeting US forces. My convo with House Intel ranking Dem @jahimes.bsky.social who calls it the “crowning irony” after Trump and Vance tore into Zelensky last year. More today at 4p. substack.com/@jimacosta?r=l…

Kristi Noem has been fired and replaced by the dumbest US Senator.

This is the man who is now in charge of US Homeland Security.

Markwayne Mullin is probably the stupidest person in the Senate. But he flatters Trump. So, of course, he’s getting Kristi Noem’s job.

Little known fact: Virtually all forms of lichen are smarter than Senator Markwayne Mullen.

Once again, Trump chose the Republican for a Cabinet position who has made the most appearances on Fox over the last month, which appears to be the primary qualification for a senior position in the administration.

And that’s how congressional hearings are supposed to work. Hopefully there will be some fraud charges to go with it. But way to shit your pants and change your shirt, Trump.

Replacing shit with poop. This should help things.

The gop is being asked, and will comply, to steal the election and install a king.

The reason they’re called human rights is all human beings have them. If you’re talking about the supposed exclusive rights of the herrenvolk you should use another term or just switch to German entirely.

An utterly irredeemable party.

Shaheen & Peters are retiring. But if any of these other Dems vote to give a single additional dollar to the Trump regime so it can keep illegally bombing in the Middle East, they should be primaried into oblivion. Call the Senate: (202) 224-3121. Not a single additional $ for Trump's illegal war.

What surprises me about Talarico is that he's a pretty standard religious-left candidate, not very different from a host of Dems who have run on their faith over the last twenty years or so. But the moment is apparently right for him to capture the zeitgeist.

Just thinking about what we could do with a billion dollars a day that doesn’t include bombing people.

And then she injected it into her cheeks
